-If your custom parser needs to support file uploads, you may return a `DataAndFiles` object from the `.parse_stream()` method.  `DataAndFiles` should be instantiated with two arguments.  The first argument will be used to populate the `request.DATA` property, and the second argument will be used to populate the `request.FILES` property.
